ADHD

ADHD Symtoms

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. ADHD symptoms may include maintaining attention, being easily distracted, forgetfulness, difficulty organizing tasks, restlessness, excessive talking, and impulsive behaviors.

Types: There are three main types of ADHD:

  - Predominantly Inattentive Presentation (formerly known as ADD): Individuals primarily exhibit symptoms of inattention.

  - Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation: Individuals mainly display symptoms of hyperactivity and impulsivity.

  - Combined Presentation: Individuals experience symptoms of both inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity.

Cause of ADHD

While the exact causes of ADHD are not fully understood, a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurological factors likely contribute to its development. Neurotransmitter imbalances, structural brain differences, and prenatal exposure to certain substances have been implicated.

ADHD Treatment

Effective ADHD treatment often involves a multimodal approach. It may include medication, such as stimulant or non-stimulant medications, to help manage symptoms. Behavioral therapy, including psychoeducation, skills training, and parent training, can also be beneficial. Implementing strategies like creating routines, providing organizational support, and breaking tasks into manageable parts can be helpful in daily life.
